Rated #1 for multiple chemical sensitivity and smoke. The GC MultiGas combines the best filter media in the industry with superior design to provide an unequaled level of protection against gases, odors, chemicals and particles.

The GC MultiGas features two particle filters that work in tandem to
provide an overall reduction of more than 99% of all particles (0.3
microns and larger) in the air. First,
a HyperHEPA Pre-Filter eliminates micro- and nano-particles such as
allergens, smoke, bacteria and viruses. New Edition technology,
including improved pleat-spacing patterns and other advances, extends
the life of the H11 HyperHEPA pre-filter by 20%. The HyperHEPA
pre-filter also helps extend the life of the gas-phase media by
preventing the gas-control cartridges from clogging with particulates.
The GC MultiGas HyperHEPA pre-filter is proven and certified to
eliminate 95% of all particles down to 0.003 microns, the smallest
particles that exist. This includes the entire range of ultra-fine
particles, the smallest and most harmful particles in the air.
Additionally, each GC MultiGas gas-phase cartridge is wrapped with a
micro-charged post-filter sleeve that eliminates particles released in
the activated carbon adsorption and alumina pellet chemisorption media.

The activated carbon used in IQAir GC MultiGas filter cartridges is
activated in a way to preserve the maximum number of micropores. Only
these very smallest pores in carbon filtration media are effective in
removing odors and chemicals from the air you breathe. IQAir's filters
contain the maximum micropore coverage to help protect your health.
The GC MultiGas packs the chemical removal power of more than 100 gas masks into its filter cartridges.

Sophisticated Controls

Every
IQAir room air purifier features six fan speeds and its streamlined
system controls allow you to easily program automatic operation via a
day/night timer. This allows you to cut energy costs and extend filter
life by using your GC MultiGas air purifier to clean the air exactly as
you need it when you need it. Also, the included intelligent filter-life
monitor precisely forecasts filter replacement based on actual usage
and color-coded lights tell you when it's time to change each filter.
Relax and let the system work for you. A sleek and efficient handheld
remote control makes it easy to manage your GC MultiGas air purifier
from almost anywhere in the room. You can set the fan speed and even
timer controls without getting up.

Mobility

The
built-in guiding handle on top and sturdy casters on the bottom of the
GC MultiGas make it simple to roll around the room or house, providing
high-performance air purification wherever you need it. When it's not
needed, it's a breeze to roll your GC MultiGas into a closet or other
handy storage area.

The purest air possible

The IQAir GC MultiGas air purifier is designed to clean the full spectrum of airborne pollutants with the very best filtration technology available at each of four stages. Air is drawn into the GC MultiGas through the bottom of the system by a powerful IQAir fan, then sequentially cleaned in a step-by-step process that delivers the purest air possible. In addition, IQAir's unique no-leakage design prevents air from escaping back into the room without being drawn through the GC MultiGas filters. The four filtration stages include:

Micro- and nano-particle filtration: The first stage of filtration features a powerful HyperHEPA® pre-filter that eliminates micro- and nano-particles such as allergens, smoke, bacteria and viruses.

Customized Gas and Odor Control The GC MultiGas is compact and customized for specific gaseous contaminants and odors. Just like a professional gas mask, IQAir maximizes filter efficiency for different gases and odors by offering the right filter cartridge. And while gas and odor control is a particular strength of these systems, the GC Series also offers excellent filtration efficiency for particles.

Gas Cartridge Technology The MultiGas uses four reusable filter cartridges to hold up to 12 lbs. of gas phase media. The cylindrical shape of these cartridges allows for optimum contact between the air and gas phase media, which ensure high removal efficiencies. The large surface area of the cartridges enables high air flow rates. Since IQAir gas filter cartridges are reusable, replacing them is not only economical, but also environmentally friendly.

High-Efficiency Particulate Filtration The particulate filtration GC units complements the gaseous filtration process by removing over 97% of particles before they can reach the gas phase media. This increases the efficiency and life of the media by preventing its pores from clogging. The GC units' overall filtration efficiency for particles is 97% at .3 microns. The post filter is electrostatically charged to trap particulate pollutants and microorganisms (bacteria and viruses).

The HyperHEPA difference

The HyperHEPA Difference

Up to 21% More Clean Air

The New Edition features the most powerful fan ever used in a residential room air purifier. That power translates into even better air cleaning results. The new three-dimensionally optimized design now uses state-of-the-art aerodynamics to convert energy into more air and less noise. By improving further on the HyperHEPA® pre-filter pleating design, we were able to increase loading capacity up to 21%. This translates into higher airflow while increasing filter life. This higher efficiency also saves you money by lowering filter replacement costs.

Most air purifiers only filter particles larger than 0.3 microns in size, but 90% of all ultra fine particles are smaller than 0.3 microns. This means that most air purifiers are only filtering 10% of the particles in your air. IQAir's patented HyperHEPA filters are the first filters tested and certified to filter down to 0.003 microns with a guaranteed minimum efficiency of over 99.5%. This allows your HealthPro to capture the ultra fine particles that other air purifiers miss.

Multiple Chemical Sensitivity

As many as 15% of Americans, or about 46 million people, suffer from
Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS), characterized by elevated
sensitivities to household chemicals and commercial products. Symptoms
can include eye irritation, wheezing, fatigue, rhinitis, sore throat or
cough, skin rashes and other symptoms. The best strategy for treating
MCS is to avoid the airborne contaminants and chemicals that trigger the
illness and reactions. Because indoor air pollution concentrations are
typically much higher than outdoor air pollution levels, “air-filtration
devices that remove both particulate and chemical substances from
breathable indoor air usually benefit MCS patients considerably,” one
leading medical expert concluded
.
Reviewers rate IQAir air purifiers as the best systems available for MCS
sufferers. Most other air purifiers simply are not effective enough to
make a real difference in the quality of the air an MCS sufferer
breathes. Equally important, IQAir does not use any technologies that
add additional MCS triggers into the air, such as ozone or chemicals.
And IQAir products are constructed of computer-grade ABS plastics that
do not “off-gas” into the air.

Smoke and Tobacco Control

Exposure to environmental tobacco smoke, also known as secondhand
smoke, significantly increases the risk of lung cancer and heart disease
in non-smokers, as well as contributing to respiratory illnesses. The
best solution is to never allow smoking in the home. Still, the best
solution isn't always possible and that's where an air purifier can
help. Tobacco smoke contains more than 4,000 different chemicals, 60 of
which are known carcinogens. These various elements are a mix of
liquids, gases, and solid particles. An air purifier cannot help protect
against tobacco smoke unless it provides a high level of efficiency
against both particles and gases. The IQAir GC MultiGas offers unrivaled
protection against both particles and gases.

Superior Purification Technology

IQAir builds better air purifiers because it uses superior air cleaning technologies:

• We use only the very best and most effective technologies. These are derived from million-dollar filtration installations used in cleanrooms, airports and hospitals.

• Unlike many of our competitors, we only use technologies, which produce absolutely no undesirable by-products, such as ozone, chemicals or charged particles.

• We only use air cleaning technologies, which are user friendly and low maintenance, since we recognize that popular high-maintenance technologies, such as electronic or ionic air cleaning, annoy owners and quickly become defective.

Why Choose IQAir?

Easy Filter ReplacementAll GC Series air purifiers feature IQAir’s revolutionary modular tower
design that snaps open to allow access to all of the system filters in a
matter of seconds. By simply releasing the locking arms and sliding the
filters out of the frame, almost anyone in the office can replace any
of the GC Series filters in moments without special tools or complicated
processes. Color-coded lights on the control panel also make it easy to
know when each of the filters needs replacing.

Trusted by Hospitals

Hospitals around the world rely on IQAir to help protect staff and patients from infectious diseases like tuberculosis and MRSA. When the dreaded disease SARS began to spread in Hong Kong hospitals in 2004, the Hong Kong Hospital Authority tested dozens of air cleaners. They determined that IQAir made the only room air cleaners suitable to be used in the fight against SARS.

100% Ozone-Free Technology

All IQAir air purifiers are 100% ozone-free. They are certified by the IAACM (International Association of Air Cleaner Manufacturers) to produce absolutely no ozone. Ozone is a lung irritant emitted from ionic and electronic air cleaners. Even small amounts of ozone are undesirable for allergy and asthma sufferers.

40 Year Track Record

In a short-lived world, where companies come and go, IQAir is proud to have stood the test of time. When Klaus Hammes and his brother Manfred introduced the world's first residential air cleaner in 1963, they pioneered an entire industry. It is with this history in mind and the future at heart, that our family company continues to provide products that are at the cutting edge of air purification.
